The (goblins actor-lib ward) module provides a mechanism for an
actor to restrict access to its behaviors using the conceptual
metaphor of a magical ward. It is inspired by
parts of the E ecosystem.
Return values holding a warden and an incanter.
If async? is #t, the incanter will use <-
to invoke sealed actors; otherwise, it will use $.
If provided, sealer-triplet is the set of sealers to use
instead of creating a new set.
The warden is not meant to be used directly; see ward
below.
The incanter can be invoked with a target actor and the
args to invoke it with.
Return behavior sealed by warden so that only its
associated incanter can use the behavior. extends, if
provided, is an actor to extend with the warded behavior. If
async? is #t, invoke behavior using <-;
otherwise us $.
The returned behavior can be invoked with either a singe list of sealed arguments or any number of unsealed arguments.
Spawn and return a reference to a proxy which invokes target
using incanter to access its warded behavior. If async?
is #t, invoke target using <-; otherwise, use
$.
Return a procedure to wrap ward using warden. The
returned procedure accepts two arguments: warded-beh, which is
the behavior to ward; and extends-beh, which is the actor to
extend with that behavior.
